It not only helped me establish myself professionally, provide me with a built-in network and valuable design resources, but was an inspiring group of like-minded people who became not only my associates, but my close friends.

I love going to events that are way out of my comfort zone. When I learn about a field of design that is not necessarily my expertise, I am fascinated by how other creative minds think.
